2.6.38-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.
------------------ From: J. Bruce Fields <[email protected]> commit 954032d2527f2fce7355ba70709b5e143d6b686f upstream. This was noticed by users who performed more than 2^32 lock operations and hence made this counter overflow (eventually leading to use-after-free's). Setting rq_client to NULL here means that it won't later get auth_domain_put() when it should be. Appears to have been introduced in 2.5.42 by "[PATCH] kNFSd: Move auth domain lookup into svcauth" which moved most of the rq_client handling to common svcauth code, but left behind this one line.
